Anti-submarine aircraft IL-38N "Novella" will provide modern electronics
The Russian military fleet will receive a new modernized anti-submarine aircraft IL-38N "Novella", equipped with modern electronics and anti-ship missiles. Izvestia was told about this in the Navy Headquarters.
According to representatives of the command, the decision to create the aircraft was made based on the results of the operation in Syria, where they did not always effectively search for American submarines, said military expert Dmitry Boltenkov. The IL-38N airborne systems are planned to be replaced by new ones.
“In total, about 25 anti-submarine aircraft will be upgraded. The IL-38N modernization program has been underway for about 15 years. With the advent of new technologies and accumulated operating experience, it is constantly being improved, ”the specialist explained.
In addition, it is possible that anti-submarines will complement modern radio-acoustic buoys of various types and X-35 anti-ship missiles.
